My body is not cooperating


Well, after a few posts of me complaining of my body, nothing is compared to how I am feeling today. My hands, middle part of my body and my feet are throbbing. I wonder is it because I have been on my feet for the last few days decorating 2 cakes for 10 hours one day and cooking the other days? Staying positive and having a good attitude becomes difficult and being patient with others takes a toll on me. When I feel this way, I do not really care what others think because I know that I need to focus on myself at the moment.

I went to a softball game the other night and I am sure the cold weather did not make things any better. People slapping me on the back, punching me in the arm and hugging me – I know they do not understand but it made me want to order a T-shirt that says “I love you guys too, but don’t hug, slap or punch me please”. I wonder if they will get the picture. I met someone who I had not seen in a long time. The last time I saw this person was at a CODA meeting and we shook hands. When we did that, this person squeezed my hand so hard I had muscle spasms up and down my arm for a while.  Oh well.

Today was a tough day. My body has not cooperated all day. I was not even able to grate parmesan cheese with a cheese grater. I needed someone else to do it for me. That is frustrating having to depend on someone else to do things for me. I hope this is just a  phase and will pass in a week or so. The weather is changing spring is here. I noticed that when the weather changes I go through changes – does that happen to any one else?

I hope that people will comment because I am very curious.
